what would i gain by paying £25 more for the JBL?

user manuel as in the one that comes with the headunit? if so i havent got one as it was second hand :| or did you mean one that comes with the sub etc? if its the head unit one where can i get one from? its a JVC BTW

yea, that is no problem, just do like they said, wire the remote up to a ignition live or cut the blue cable. Refer to your user manual to make sure you cut/use the correct one!

right ive stolen a pic from anther thread as it is the same as the back of my head unit


pic is courtesy of danny w hope you didnt mind me using it as it was better then my efforts with my camera phone :)


So can i wire up a sub and amp to this head unit? by the sounds of what is been said in the other post it should be ok

all iv ever had is a single 12" Alpine type R sub in the Alpine letterbox Ported box 300w Alpine amp running sub and 2Ch 90w x2 Alpine amp running 5.25 Alpine Type R Comps from Early next week that is stil waiting for them

Il get on the case tomoro :)

^ as above. Get a pic of what you have if possible

if its got a red and white conecters at the bk and a blue lead . thats all you need

what the JBL? if so sounds cool :D

If my headunit is not compatable is there any way i can make it compatable?
Although i cant see it been a problem as it has a wire/connector coming out of the back which im presuming is some sort of preout so all should be well shoudnt it ?

Cheers Gavin :)

ive got that sub and amp deal . and sounds really gd . gives out some good base and is easy to wire up

yer that was the sub deal that i was looking at :)

So is that better then the FLI active unit?

Also is the one 2v preout from my head unit all i need to link it up? How does it connect as it just seems to be a wire to me with a connector on the end :| :lol:

this is a little ova your budget but your not going to get a lot for 150

comps 34.99
sub n amp combo 125.00

how do you mean by what is the pre out?

as far as i can see its a lead and 2 volts which to be fair does not mean alot to me :lol:

what is the pre out? sub front or rear? and what size sub do u want

found out my head unit has one 2v preout this any good?

have a budget of about £150 max really

Would you recomend JBL over FLI then. As ive seen a JBL package of 400w amp, 12" sub, box and wiring kit for £120 which seemed ok

whats ur budget mate???
take a look here and they wil tell you everything you need to know.

for budget subs i always go for jbl, they are probably the best you can get at budget price, ive always had jbl subs

:wave:

Would need to know the model really mate -unless u know if it has any preouts (if it does you should be fine)

as for a good budget package - just depends on your budget and how good a system you want

could be worth sending mad4corsa a u2u - he had a sub and amp 4 sale recently mate

Im currently running a headunit with front components and 6x9's in the rear door cards.

But i am now thinking of upgrading by front speakers ditching the 6x9's and getting a sub.

What would be a good budget sub package to go for are the FLI active inclousures any good? and can they be run from a basic headunit (JVC cd/mp3 thing) can get model and more info if needed


Cheers Gavin :)
